I’m jumping the gun a little bit here, but I’m just super excited. Friend of mine is going to be running an Apocalypse World play by post soon(ish) and this will be the first game I’ve been a player for since… a while. I went ahead and got my character made and will be doing…

Here is a quickstart for your next Apocalypse World game. Say the bold words out loud and follow along. Be sure to ask lots of questions and own the hell out of this. Make it your game, and not just something you printed off the internet. This was written for my home game with 5…

So my group just finished our first session of our play by post Apocalypse World game. If you’d like to read it click here to get to the google doc. (Sorry I linked session 2 before. Now it goes to session 1.)

This past week I started up another Apocalypse World play by post. We’re running the whole thing through google docs, slides, drawings, hangouts, etc. If you’d like to check out what we’re up to go to this link. This will allow you to see our game, character sheets, notes, etc. We’re trying out the latest…

I remember a while ago someone somewhere had told me that I should read Vincent Baker’s Hatchet City. It’s an Apocalypse World (AW) scenario designed for a one shot or convention game.

So this time around we’re back in Apocalypse World, but I’m going to set up the setting a little more than the last few. This time around the story will take place in the Jungle of York. Picture New York but overrun with jungle. Not just a few trees here or there, but massive trees…

I found this while pursuing through the Barf Forth Apocalyptica forums and this is something I usually do, but I’ve never seen this advice written down and Pete did a much better job than I could so here is what he wrote. If you know Pete (or are Pete) let him know this is here,…

Last week David Benson asked me to consider doing a quick start for the PbtA hack, Apocalypse West, a pseudo supernatural cowboy spin off. You can find the play books here. Once again, the MC asks the first question to the group, and whoever says “Me!” gets asked the second question. At the end there…

I wrote an article last week coming up with a quick start to help folks get their Apocalypse World game started quickly. This works great for one shots and cons, but you could use it to help get a longer game running as well, or if you have new players that may be stuck in…
